    Here are the remainder of the pictures from our time at 
the Tahquamenon Falls...

    It was a long day to this point, but as darkness settled 
in over St. Ignace, I decided to take a drive to the scenic overlook that is 
located just west of the campground to see what kind of shots I could get of the 
bridge. While I took a few photos, the one below was my favorite.

    Since Tyler, Drew, and I were slightly disappointed with 
the view of the bridge from the scenic overlook, we decided to head back down to 
the Bridge View Park to take some more pictures. Unfortunately for us, it was 
closed in preparation for the Bridge Walk tomorrow, so we headed down the dirt 
road that runs along the shoreline of Lake Michigan. We found a nice spot and 
pulled off to the side to take these shots...
